This dream I had few years ago but can’t get it out of my head ever since, I know it’s very important and related to the spiritual path.

So, I am holding a rope attached to the tail of a humongous black hooded dragon. I am struggling to hold on, it looks like we’re inside the earth, there’s dirt, mud and rocks everywhere and the Dragon seems like swimming in it. The dragon tries to throw me away with its tail but can’t do it, then he/she tries to eat me and appears as if she/he is chasing its tail, but can’t. The terrain is so rough and she/he can’t shake me off even though I am less than a mosquito to her/him. This goes on for a while but not for a moment I think of letting go.

Then the terrain starts to get softer, less rocks, more mud, the dragon does not fight as aggressively now and I start to climb the rope getting closer to the body. The terrain gets even softer and now water appears. Finally, I reach the dragon’s body, its colossal; I can hardly catch on to one scale. Now I’m on its back and we’re into water, the experience from horrifying becomes adventurous and then pleasant. I’m climbing its back slowly and it becomes easier by the moment, then we are out of the water and flying in the air, it’s wonderful. The air starting to get thinner there is no resistance at all and the colours are becoming so vivid and psychedelic, it’s ecstatic. Finally, I reach the head and I see its beautiful face it is rounded, thorny with fantastic yellow eyes. Awe is not enough to describe that moment, I feel warm safe and loved. I don’t remember any words only this endless bliss.

Dear Sol – This dream has so much information and encouragement in it I will have to suggest several links to really give you enough insights.

First of all, you are remarkable, because most people give up at the first difficulty that Life throws at them; and you are a true heroine of the Life Path. Life gives us difficulties as a way of clearing out the things, mistakes, errors we make in the past – or even in our babyhood. Yes, we can make errors while a baby.

So, your dream dragon, like all dream images is a way of indicating something that is at the very foundation, the core of you. It is the creative force, or energy that not only formed your body, but is Life itself – your Life.

Take time to think about this. You are a life form, and life forms exist because at the very start of being a life form, it is the creation of the universe that leads to your being. So that immense event is behind everything that exist, and like any life form, a tree for instance, it cannot exist without its connection with everything else. The tree needs the sun, and the earth, which is the dead bodies of past lives; it needs the bacteria at its roots to transform minerals.

In your dream, you not only faced the many difficult periods of your life, but in some way, you managed not to let go of the certainty that life was basically a gift. And in the end, you broke through to the very essence of your life; it is when we let go of everything that we manage that and experience bliss.
